Re: A Couple's Plan for Death

My DH and I talked about this. That is pretty much how it went as DH will not talk about it.

Re: A Couple's Plan for Death

My mother has told us that she wants to be cremated and she wants her ashes taken to the Grand Canyon and spread there by my father, brother and I.

Now that it has become apparent that my father will almost certainly be passing before my mother, she asked him what his wishes are. He said, "well, I don't want to be thrown into the Grand Canyon!"

(I was crying when I asked her if she knew what his wishes are...but I had to laugh when she told me he said that.)

Hey Lion, Tansy,

Missed you guys, too!

I'm hooping to blues now, tansy. Joe Bonamassa in particular. If you haven't heard him and you like blues at all you MUST MUST MUST listen to him!

I know this thread was a joke. I also know that it's a serious subject and a current one for many on this board. But I have to say I loved your dad's comeback here. What a great line, mistri. Sorry, but I had to laugh too!
